Magic Eraser. But, don't get too aggressive with it.

I usually go to the dealership and get new sills. They are like $14 a piece or something.

i will try magic eraser, but this is cheap. how do you install them?

also, i thought my interior was beige, but apparently there is cream beige so i don't know which mine is. it is a very light brown. does anyone know if that is beige or cream beige? thanks for the help so far.

Depending on your exterior colour why not just get Black trim. They are not visible other than when opening the doors.
